Turbo flywheel in a N/A tranny??

Does anyone know if a turbo flywheel fits, and works with a n/a tranny if I use the clutch and pressure plate for the same fly?? I found this ACT unit on ebay for good price and the guy says it works, you just have to use the corrosponding clutch and pressure plate to mate with.. Heres the flywheel link.. ACT PROLITE FLYWHEEL 86-99 MAZDA RX7 FC3S FD3S 600140 (220176968412)

check out this:
http://www.rotaryresurrection.com/2n...in_differ.html

a quote:
Nonturbo flywheels are smaller diameter than turbo flywheels. Rotary engines only use these 2 diameters for all applications, though the weights and styles changed a bit through the years.
The turbo flywheel is a good ¾” larger diameter than the nonturbo version. Because of this, clutch diameter, presureplate diameter, ringgear diameter, and starter placement were all changed.
